What changes the calories
- Guava size varies a lot, so a large fruit can have noticeably more calories than the 55 g guava used for the standard serving.
- The skin and seeds are usually eaten, so weighing the whole fruit after trimming only the ends gives a closer match to the listed values.
- Guava paste, jams and sweetened juices contain added sugar, which raises the calories well above those of the fresh fruit.
- Toppings such as chili-salt mixes add few calories, while sugar, condensed milk or cream cheese pairings add many more.
Tips for logging it accurately
- Weigh your guava on a kitchen scale after removing the stem end, since fruit size varies more than the single-guava serving suggests.
- Log fresh guava as raw fruit, and add any sugar, syrup or dip as separate entries.
- If you snap a photo of your guava in BerryFit, check the estimated portion and adjust the weight if your fruit is larger or smaller.
